Told you that striker would be special. :lmao::lmao:

I've tried a different way of quenching and tempering.:thinkerg:
Blade is sequential tempered in oil so stays hard but not brittle:rolleyes:
Handle is hardened really fast in water so it chucks sparks like a demon:red: Have fun ;)

If I recall correctly, someone (Biker?) stated we should show our received GIO-goodies being used.
I can not find that thread, however. Anyone know where it is??

I'll also throw in a home made leather possible spouch 4" wide by 6" tall made from recycled jacket leather with yellow paracord tie cord with plastic toggle. Looks better than my description - Just don't look at the stictching inside I'm still learning :)
